NEW YORK (AP) - March 29, 2009
Jury selection begins Monday in Manhattan's state Supreme Court
for the trial of Anthony Marshall and his attorney, Francis
Morrissey. It's expected to take two weeks for a trial that might
last two months and involve some 60 witnesses. Jury selection is
starting after more than a year of delays.
Possible witnesses include Annette de la Renta, wife of fashion
designer Oscar de la Renta and Astor's court-appointed personal
guardian; former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger; and banker
David Rockefeller.
Many of Astor's household staff also are expected to testify for
the prosecution.
